![Are Cheap Offset Smokers Worth the Money? [Smoker Review]](/img/n.gif)
I have the exact same smoker... Some guy in the neighborhood was moving away and set it out on the curb to throw away so I loaded it up in my pickup. That was over 10 years ago. It was well used when I got it and I've used it over over a hundred times probably. Has a bit of rust now but still super solid and good as new. His estimate that this would be good for about 5 cooks is waaaay off. BTW... Just tighten the damn nut on the vent and it will hold it's position just fine, lol.
Thank God someone who has sense🙄 I have the same grill bro...an please tell this guy, that the wooded Handle does not go on the side of the fire box!!!
I love the new video style with your filming group!
"I have hangover...don't do this to me!" Haha. Been there
Haha same here mate
Yep
I love how she dances while eating!! That's a happy camper right there!! Cheers from Mexico brother!1
That piece of pork belly is probably more expensive than the smoker itself.
Hiring the pitmaster to cook for you would be also haha
I think you right.
If he uses this smoker more than 5 times, it practically pays for itself
Naah changed my mind.
Rooster:"Good Morning World!!😁
Pitmasterx:"Sheee-ed up!"😠
...I felt that.😂
I watch your videos all the time and very informational and I give it 80% by itself. But that new thing you got going on I have to give you 200 percent. I ain't gon lie. Denise. what a great add-on. She is perfect for the channel and the food is looking good too 😊
The happy dance by Denise should be the way you judge all of your meals, makes me laugh every time
we have similar cheap offsets here in oz, people tighten the bolt on the side vent right up so it starts to bind, then you can stick the vent partially open.
also get a big fire going right across the whole smoker inc. the cooking side and burn off all that paint. then treat it like cast iron, with a very light seasoning to stop it rusting.
you can make metal heat deflector plates so you don't get hot spots at each end, and a bit of foil ducting to extend them chimney vent down to grill level so you get a more even temp.
theyre cheap improvements that'll help make it a little better.
I love what you've been doing with the channel Roel. Now you have a great team. I love Denise she's a great addition to the team.... and beautiful at that.👍🏻👍🏻🤘😎🤘
You just proved that if you know what your doing any smoker will turn out great food, I like the new video style and your filming crew also. Great job.
This show is just getting better and funnier.. not boring to watch.. thanks for the review master X.. I won’t be buying that anymore 👍🏻 as always.. keeep on grilling 🤪..
1:12 "Your more of an average consumer than I am." oooooh shots fired
I desperately want that humongous knife. This is almost a freaking sword, definitely need one!
That is a truly gorgeous Knife, i followed the link to Wüsthof (Amazon) and its a Classic IKON (4596-7) Chefs knife 26cm blade length, priced at EURO #139.00
Wüsthof 4586-36 -14" model
@@Ruzzelruzzel cheers Tom, thanks for the update!
A cheap smoker is better than no smoker🤷🏼♂️
Couldn't be more right
Actually I disagree, You can buy a Weber kettle and use it to smoke, I would use the money and buy the rotisserie modification and put another shelf in the Weber 😁
I always smoke on a good gas grill. Works perfectly fine and holds the temperature you set it to perfectly.
@@sbd421 weber kettle + a slow and sear is the best bang for the buck.
P JB why waste the money? 2 bricks standing on edge at around 40 cents each and a tray of water. Don’t get me wrong, if you want to spend more than the grill costs, maybe you have the money to buy a smoker. Me I would rather buy a brisket to smoke in my kettle.
It really is a great design as one can get good results on an inexpensive unit. In 2007 I used a Char Broil offset smoker($150)and an even cheaper vertical smoker to compete at the Eat Vancouver BBQ contest where I got 8th (out of 25) in both beef brisket and pulled pork. Some of the competitors had BBQ trailer rigs costing $25,000 and from as far away as Texas.
Shows your skills. Even with crap tools, a good cook can make something good. A crap cook blames the crap tools. I’ve had two cheap “vertical” smokers...one charcoal, one electric. Neither lasted more than two years. The charcoal one was better, the electric easier. Both Still made awesome chicken, pork, beef, fish, and veggies. 😁. Like this type of testing video...thanks!
I agree, he’s a master of his craft. Can run circles around mediocre people with bargain basement tools.
When I first started seeing Denise (I think that's her name) I thought she was Marshon's girlfriend. I know I was mistaken but she's an awesome addition to the team!
Da Boxing Guru
Marshon 😂😂😂
Dude, he‘s called Morten 😂😂😂
@@janvanditzhuyzen4885 my bad 🤣🤣🤣 give me a full cast list. I dont even know pitmaster x's actual name
All good man, only saw one video too... all good man. Only love man 😄
LOL no, he's called Morrison! Morrison! 😂 PitmasterX's name is Roel. And the new photographer is Denise 😁
Thanks for the update!!!
Denise kicks butt. She can put a smoker together and knows how to wheeled a hammer...... she is worthy
One of the best videos you've made this year! Nice montage and good vibes! A pleasure to watch!
Also shows how a good pitmaster can get decent results even with a crappy BBQ.
It's not crappy...buy 1 before u listen to other ppl...he didn't even put the grill together properly lol...I have 1 of my own just bought about 1 week now
Your new style of filming is fun to watch. You guys make a good trio.
As far as offset smokers go you get what you pay for. You buy a cheapie smoker you get a flimsy smoker mine cost close to 400 dollars (US) and I've had it for years and it's a beast. The one you have might seem like its thin metal but once its cured and got smoke built up its gonna seem thicker and dude you never cook on a uncured smoker.
Denise is just plan GORGEOUS
the gamma has a jamestown smoker for 179eu. i bought it this summer. only needed to change the intake vent for something bigger. you should really check this one out.
I was quite busy the last months and I missed 😢 soooo many of your coolest videos, but today (public holiday in 🇩🇪) I binge watched them! And I am really amazed and entertained by you and Morrison and the cute Denise 😍. I wish you much success for the book and for sure I think you can become, at least for Europe THE BBQ icon , Cheers Mike
A cheap smoker, bbq pork belly, a hung over friend and a dancing Denise. This man will be at 500K subs in no time.
Greetings from Texas my wife is like yours I can build that and enjoys it. I fabricate and wood working. Im getting into smoking hoping to learn more. I think its amazing to see Netherlands folks enjoying it.
Use a water pan to stabilize temperature near the offset. If you are learning to smoke meat, Get a traeger grill for ease of use.
Hahahaha. Two guys messing around while the girl built a offset smoker 😂😂😂
That is equality!!
Thats management
More videos with Denisse please! loved her attitude and her face when she was about to build the smoker
Quick question, aren't you supposed to "season" your smoker the first time you fire it ?
A friend bought one sometime ago I assembled it while he went to buy the meat and other stuff and once I finished it stated in the manual that it had to be fired up in order to burn off any shipping oils or residue that it had and to season it in order to be ready to use, was it not your case ?
You are 100% correct, and anyone that says NO shouldn't be smoking anything..Take their BBQ card away...
looks to me that it did what it should do , but as you said it wont last a long time , but some foil could be used to catch the grease , but i think you be more happy with a used weber kettle from the used marked, works great for smoking to if you ask me :)
couple mods for using one of these for better long term success 1. turn the grate side ways in fire so there is more room for ash and air to come in from the opening. 2. any extra cast iron you can find and put it in the smoking chamber under the grates, those small cast iron brownie pans work great or any cast iron you can find at a thrift store. dont over spend here. but any extra metal you can find helps with the stable temp . 3 I places a half terracotta base plate over the smoke stack exit to bring the exit to grate level.. plus my smoker has lasted far more then ten smokes and i do 20 hour brisket smokes about every other month on it. i got mine from a thrift store on the cheap as but i have grown in my smoking ability's and now see the value in a more expensive smoker.
Fun video! Love the interaction - keep it up. Pitmasterx rocks
....I did the same thing ....get rid of the small exhaust pipe...cut a hole for a 4 inch exhaust ppe use water heater pipe ..it will burn wood only ...you can BBQ anything you like...same as any 5,000 unit... good luck PitX.....
A nice review and a nice pork belly! Denise earned the title of this episodes super hero hands down, but then again, Martian was hungover so he of course never stood any chance 😄
Never expect too much out of a nauseous Martian with a headache.
Pitmaster, really enjoy all of your videos. Fun format, and really informational for a learning griller. Your crew and you seem to really enjoy putting it all together, and it shows! Keep the videos coming!
If he's gonna tell lies like this, it's better to just stop
I do have the same one. Its working, but yes for the first smoker its ok, i know that smoker Will not last long. Keep on grilling👍🍺😁
I love you Dutch guys .... your English is perfect and your videos are excellent !! And you know what you're talking about !! I have been to your beautiful country many times and can't wait to visit you again.
Great video! I used a cheap smoker for a few years before it died. Cooked a lot of meals on it. But as anything the cheap ones don't last as long and are not Insulated very well. But they will cook some meals! Great video!
Voor de prijs is het een prima dingentje.
En wij zijn allemaal met een "goedkoop" kloteding begonnen.
En van daar ga je verder met wat leukers
Love the videos, but you really need to do a couple of things before you ever cook in the offset. First, was is clean? Second, spray the entire inside and grates with Pam or similar nonstick spray. Third, burn the offset in completely before you ever cook food that you are going to eat. Impurities are bad enough on an expensive pit, but God knows what you are eating from the cheap paint and such in a bargain brand. Good luck. Keep up the videos. And block anyone who is disrespectful to Denise. She seems like a great gal.
I had one just like this. It was great ribs, tri tip, hens, links, turkey. Fire starter chimney is best. If you do leave grill thats is in the fire box the air circles better.
Denise is very pretty. She looks strong too.
I was thinking that, too. Her arms look way more muscular than the two guys. Maybe they should have an arm-wrestling tournament.
you'd wreck them!
This was a good video. I like these kinds of interactions - they def help set channels apart from each other.
I love how this channel is always trying new things
The cheap offset bbqs are good to learn on (some need a few mods to make them work better). But if your serious and to get one half decent you will have to spend £250 upwards and I've seen them on Amazon up to nearly £1600😯. So I decide to build my own from a large propane 3mm thick mild steel tank and 3mm mild steel for the fire box and chimney frame 2mm box section total cost materials £375 total and my time......But guaranteed not to rot after one UK summer 😂Love your videos Man keep them up. Your teaching me sone good cooking methods 👍
Sandwiches look delicious! Denise looks nice in those jeans.
yes she does!!!!
I have a Brinkmann Smoke-n-Pit for years. Smoked Ribs, Butt, and Tenderloins with great results every time. Only thing that I have done is replace the thermostat from the "Ideal" type to one that reecords the chamber temp.
Use a yard guard type of bug spray about 1 hour before you start.
Also, buy a cover for your smoker.
Bbqs galore is a good store. They will have
big sales after labor day...ask for Henrik he is the owner.
do more videos like this. really like it when you test various gadgets versus only recipe videos
Remember these guys are a company channel. This is rare indeed.
@@Craztwell, usually videos with gadget can get better sponsors because it help promote and sell said items. its almost like a commercial minus the false marketing
Well, it may not function that well as a smoker... but for a gaming chair.... I see the opportunities!
Probably a good option to take on camping trips. I can't fit my big offset smoker in the truck with everything else and it's too damn heavy to cart around.
I've learned so much from you and I've enjoyed it. Thanks
I started with a smoker like this... soon i wanted better Material...
The Big Joe is my Dream...
Honestly, I'm surprised it kept a stable temp with all the gaps around every single door. Good Vid!
A great Pit Master can smoke (BBQ) on a tin can. You Sir are a great Pit Mater. Awesome video. Love the team. Best channel on you tube. Thanks
Agreed, all that you need to do is pay attention.
Love the video, love Denise even more😍
Knife maker: how big of a knife you want?
Pitmaster: yes
Cool looking property. Just like the lemon on the sandwich, Denise adds that little extra class to the show. Entertaining vid. Swaggy
I liked that you had Morrison and Denise more in this video. Is Denise always that happy? Haha
The biggest thing is to get a 4 probe thermometer. I mount 2 under the grates one on the left and one on the right. then I use the other 2 in the meat, one in the thin end and one in the thiccc end, and put the thick end toward the fire. if you see one end getting hotter then rotate it. also having one with a remote is a big plus. I spend the most effort starting up the coals to go in the heat box.
I was given on for Christmas, I have used it 6 or so times, got really great results. Thanks for the great video.
Loving the recession busting vids, got a bbq grill and turnt into a smoker cost me £25. Pit master you mean more entertaining than if you put it together
In my offset smoker I had to do one burn to clean the smoker from the factory grease
I would love to see a tour of your filming grounds. I love to see the buildings and just a basic tour of the surroundings we see in the background. I love what you do over there on your side of the world. I'm in the world's best BBQ area in the world. TEXAS.
It's great too see that Denise is gorgeous but modest.
Love the honesty of the vid, thanks for posting it.
we need to see more of Denise..:D
Absolutely!
She really is gorgeous and seems smart too, taking the skin (rind) off the belly is not smart leave it on.🤔
He's right to let her put it together. She's not afraid to use the instructions.
great video i was surprised the little off set worked to
Love the F1 reference - keep up the good work
Same. I wonder how Max will do today
Oh well. I guess I jinxed him. Sorry Roel. I'm sure you're a fan of Max Verstappen.
The best part of this video was watching that young lady eat that sandwich she was so happy that would put a smile on any cooks face
Didn't season the smoker first. It's important to do a burn first to burn off the oils and other chemicals from the factory.
any metal areas that you dont want to rust like the hinges, get some vegetable oil (or any oil/fat) , rub it on the exposed metal and heat it example with a blow torch.... the oil will stick to the metal and prevent rusting :)
"We got three roosters...actually not for long" oh no 3:27
This is really helpful because they are quite abundant especially in DIY hardware stores, but I have never seen anyone on a barbecue channel using one.
I bought this exact offset smoker from Amazon! The first thing I made was 8 pounds of smoked bacon from some fresh pork bellies. Shared 3 pounds with neighbors and recieved great feedback on taste! This thing is cheap and flimsy but easy and convenient.
1:50 Look of disappointment... coool I have hangovers don’t do this to me 🤣🤣🙌🏻🤣🤣
Best BBQ on YT together with best entertainment
I live in Florida and a cheap grill will last about 6 months if you use it regularly with the heat and humidity. I was told not to get the off set smokers because the fire box would rust through and would fall off with your video I can agree.
LoL, Love it "I have a hangover"! The look is priceless!!!😂
I started out with one, made some mods on the fire box and a new grill grid... still in use as back up smoker. 5+ years.
Denise's contruction work made the video possible, should of made a BLT since you all also like mayonnaise so much, great video and antics.
Agree! Very entertaining to watch all the way around...
I want to see you make that skin crispy in the nest video.
Hellyeah!!!
This video was flipping hilarious! Forget the content, the "team" is gut-splitting funny.
Denise is dream girl type, oh my lord. 🖤
I bought one. Took me days to build. I had no idea it was even a smoker lol. I just finally figured out how to use it proper. I was just throwing charcoal everywhere haha! Oh by the way, the sliding door to the firebox should have been on the inside of the firebox with the metal bar sticking out through the opening. It holds open on its own and is more secure. I know, the directions they send are garbage. Just a blurry diagram that's been photocopied million times. Oh yeah it rust super quick too! Great video!
Thanks for the tip with the door. I've just assembled mine and then seen this. Works a lot better now. :)
Great episode. Funny too 😄 . I am big into BBQ or as we say Braai . Also in the market for my first smoker. Will let you know how it turned out . Keep it up 👍👍
I just love that at 11:37. This was a really good vid. Got my sub. Heeeey Denise!
You have the most important thing about BBQ down pat. Family, friends and fun. I guess that's why this 'ol Alabama boy that was raised on some of the best BBQ in the world watches a guy in the Netherlands cook BBQ.
Roll tide!
@@morrisonhulshof3224 WHAT!? WAR EAGLE!
@@tvideo1189 haha when i was in alabama everyone kept saying roll tide
Thanks for another great video . Love every cook you do . You inspire me to keep trying new things on my big green egg and gas bbq .
Good tip for size off smoker. You saved me a lot of headaches!
"we got 3 roosters........not for long" hahahaha, great video, very entertaining
Well that was a fun video.
Dundee would be jealous of that knife
Loving the team dynamics! Brilliant set of characters:-) (Morrison is definitely like Hammond though)
When marshan without cap 👶
Denisse smiling face 😊
And pitmaster x doing food omg. im hungry 🐽
Great review, realistic test and results, good job. Keep the videos coming, very informative. Denise is sooo adorable, lucky guy.
GREAT video! So much fun. Carrot in the sandwich is genius. Going to try that...
Ahhh the ole blokker special
Denise is thick (very good thing). Good for you guys! The rooster part killed me....lol, as well as the lemon part. Funny stuff.
Great video!
